Big bang

Which planet are you flying from?
is the milky way the place where you were born?
what fancy language is your talk?
i need an angel to get mercy of all my faults,
i need an angel to look after me,
what’s this big bang booming in my head?
(chorus)
as i suddenly see you around
and you suddenly knock me down
i get down to life from my own
hell of the broken hearts
and i suddenly see your face
and you suddenly shake my days
i get down to life from my own
hell of the broken hearts
hell of the broken hearts.
momy used to say i’m a troubled boy
to my baby i used to be nothing but her toy
i don’t wanna be the wreck i’m not
guess i could be a spark over the top,
i need an angel before it’s too late
what’s this big bang hurting like a blade?
(chorus)…

The trigger

Suzie, you're right, you're so beautiful,
but i've seen dust under the couch,
your lips say i'm not the only one
but your eyes beg me to stay
(chorus)
ah, Suzie, catch the last train leaving
ah, Suzie, don't make life go creeping
ah, don't believe me when i'm cheating
though i need you and you need me
if i don't free you you'll kill me.
Suzie, you can get the world you want
just sit down and don't refuse to hear
freedom may be worth a murder
the silent murder of our love,
(chorus)…
trigger the gun
trigger the gun
trigger the gun
trigger the gun

Gold

they say you've got to wait
before you sail away
they say there's much to come
they care
they say you're just a teen
teen like the love you bring
they say you'll have your time
they wait
(chorus)
every single tear drop you shed at night
every single sigh souring from inside
every little lie to defy the fears
is gold, is gold,
you say you can't go on
as all mistakes you've done
now stand in front of you
and laugh
this is what makes you sad
this is what makes you mad
you say you can't go on
too long.
(chorus)…

Rock'n'Roll menu

(chorus)
we are the city / the city of love
why don’t you try this / hot rock’n’roll menu?
we are the city / the city of love
why don’t you try this / hot rock’n’roll menu?
why don’t you get me /when i’m asleep at night
i’d hear you getting close /so close to my mouth
i’ve got this feeling /this feeling ain’t so bad
why don’t you eat me now/ i’m your butter and bread
you, only you can make it happen, so make it happen!
if I were in your shoes
I wouldn’t miss it, I wouldn’t miss it.
(chorus )…
why don’t you catch me/ catch me on the fly
taste me in so many ways / eat me in one bite
i’ve got this feeling /this feeling ain’t so bad
why don’t you eat me now/ i’m your butter and bread
you, only you can make it happen
so make it happen!
if I were in your shoes
I wouldn’t miss it, I wouldn’t miss it.
(coda & chorus)…

Water that washes
03:32
|

|
what has been said
is said
what has been crashed
is crashed
what's gone to waste
is waste
but what has been loved
is lightening the world
is water that washes
my soul
what has been shed
is shed
what has been blown
is blown
what has been torn
is torn
but what has been loved
is lightening the world
is water that washes my soul
what has been loved
bears love

This river
04:15
|
|||
|
is it a real surprise / to see me here tonight?
the music is loud / and noise all around,
i wish we were all alone, / i wish you and i alone
instead of the noise bluring my voice
i shout don't go, you're gone…
(chorus)
down , down this river
the more you let me live
the more you're gonna kill me
down, down this river
the more you call me friend
the more this is the end of all.
is it a real mistake / still to have you in my mind?
the flower is torn / the flavour is gone
i still have you in (my) mind
the pulsing blood drives me blind
get out of the noise / can you hear my voice?
i cry don't go, you're gone.
(chorus)…

Love what I've got
04:15
|
|||
|
some days I get high / some others I fall apart
I never lose my faith / I never hide my scars
some days I'm the king
some others I get kicked off the ring
this poison in my veins / is something you can't blame
(chorus)
I've got what I love / I love what I've got
you'll never hear me
regret 'bout what's missing in my life
I've got what I love / I love what I've got
I've got you baby,
your sweet face, your sweet blue magic eyes,
I love what I've got.
some days i'm a roket-man
some others it feels like i'm a wreck
gotta climb these walls, / I never lose my way home.
(chorus)….
I love the world and all its faults
love the lambs, forgive the wolves
I love the ground where I was born
I love the place where I will fall
someday I'll jump onto a star
to rock and roll over the world.
(chorus)…

has it ever been supposed to be a love song?
just another one / noone of us is needing,
a river runs through me
and a story must be told
and they wouldn't / wait that long to show the jaws,
and the mirror image vanishes
while I'm flowing down,
so hold me tight before I go...
has it ever been supposed to be a love song?
(just) another one
meant to grant sweet lies to humans,
but it's too late for a fine dining,
and it' too too late,
so hold me tight before I go…
has it ever been supposed to be a love song?
a song for you / who can't really want to be alone
a river runs through me / breaking all the banks,
should we survive
to the bites of a different fate?
and I'm flowing down / like a broken sound
and it's too too late for love.

Dear Mrs. Happiness

Come, come, come
did u hear my voice calling loud?
come, come, come
i'm a fool shouting in the crowd
here's the turn of the merry days
it's the time to get shining
here's the turn to lift our souls away
to where the sun casts no shadow
come, come, come
I left my door open to let u in
come, come, come
all your pains and troubles are enough
here's the turn of the merry days
it's the time to get shining
here's the turn to lift our souls away
to where the sun casts no shadow
come, come, come
tell me we two know what it becomes
come, come, come
tell me u won't leave yourself alone
tell me u won't leave yourself alone
tell me u won't leave yourself alone.
